Half fairy

Chapter 280
Heaven and earth, the long river is long, and the awning boat on the long river.

It was cloudy and cloudy, and it was drizzling. Standing at the bow of the boat, Mu Aotie was wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat at the helm, steering the whole boat with the current.

Under the black canopy, in the not-so-comfortable cabin, Nan Zhu was meditating cross-legged, while Yu Qing was lying there with her head in her arms, staring blankly at the ceiling in a daze.

The three brothers took turns driving the boat.

The three of them planned to ride quickly to their destination, but after all, the plan couldn't keep up with the change, and they changed to take their time.

There was no way, a large number of sergeants suddenly stopped the road for inspection, and the three of them were very confused, and they didn't know if they were coming for them.

I'm a little worried whether it's the handwriting of unscrupulous people targeting them.

If this is the case, it will not be safe to change horses at the post stations along the way. The military can easily find out their whereabouts through the post stations.

Fortunately, the water network in this area is densely covered and there are many waterways, so the three brothers simply built a boat.

One person drives the boat, and two people hide in the cabin, so it is not easy to be found, which is a way.

During inspections on the way, the other two quickly groped into the water from the stern, hanged at the bottom of the boat and mixed in, so as not to let outsiders find out that they were traveling together.

"If the map is not mistaken, the triangle in front is Shiji Bay."

Mu Aotie, standing at the stern and steering the ship, looked ahead and gave a reminder.

Nan Zhu opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Yu Qing, and found that the little junior was lying there indifferent, as if he hadn't heard it, and couldn't help shaking his head, "This guy's temperament, unrequited love won't make him like this, it seems There was indeed something between Wen Xin and Wen Xin."

Mu Aotie, who was at the helm, looked down at Wupengli, "It looks like he was charmed by that Wen Xin."

The two have already noticed that there is a problem between Yu Qing and Wen Xin, there is no way, Yu Qing actually called out Wen Xin's name in his sleep, it can be said that the two senior brothers were shocked, and they naturally wanted to ask how to answer However, Yu Qing refused to admit it after being beaten to death.

Yesterday, when the boat docked, Nan Zhu went to a small town to do some shopping, and heard the news that Wen Miao was dead and Wen Xin succeeded as the head of the Wen clan.

The news had actually spread throughout Ningzhou, but the three of them had little contact with outsiders and didn't know it.

After Nanzhu brought the news back, everyone was very moved. They didn't expect that such a big change would happen to Wen's in a blink of an eye, and dozens of people were poisoned to death.

Yu Qing only said, "It may be for us, don't go ashore where there are people."

After the talk, it basically became like this.

The two senior brothers probably also understood what he meant. Wen's disaster may have been brought about by his reputation as a 'Traveler', and it is very likely that someone is tracking down their whereabouts through Wen's.

It's really a coincidence that what happened, it didn't happen sooner, it didn't happen later, it happened just after they left, it's hard not to think about it.

At the very least, they should also be more vigilant, no one can guarantee that Wen's will not betray them.

"Hi, Shiji Bay is almost here."

Nan Zhu, who was sitting cross-legged, let out a leg and stomped on Yu Qing's crotch twice as a reminder.

"Huh?" Yu Qing finally woke up, got up, and half climbed to the bow to look outside.

Nanzhu also half-crawled over to look out, and saw that the boat had arrived at the confluence of two rivers. According to the marking on the map, the direction of the river rushing away was the sea.

At this time, there were many boats coming and going outside, and the triangular water bank was obviously a pier.

From time to time, a boat passed by, Yu Qing and Nan Zhu immediately retracted into the cabin, and put down the curtain of the awning, trying to avoid letting people know that there were three people on the boat.

puff!Yu Qing poked a hole in the shed with one finger, and looked out in front of the hole.

Nan Zhu looked at his fingers, followed suit, and poked a hole to look outside.

Because of the current, Mu Aotie no longer steered the helm, but took the oars and rowed towards the pier.

The boat didn't dock, but just approached and passed by the pier. On the archway of the pier, there are three big characters "Shiji Bay" written impressively.

On the edge of the pier, there is a boulder. It is said that during the dry season, it looks like a huge frog lying in the water. At this time, only a large piece is exposed on the water surface, and there are fishermen fishing in the rain at the backwater of the boulder.

According to local chronicles, the reason why this place is called "Shiji Bay" is because of this huge rock.

Finally found the "Shiji Bay" that Yun Xi mentioned, and the three of them were very excited.

Nan Zhu closed his eyes and recalled, "Yunxi said that the entrance and exit are at the highest peak among the mountains in the depths of the white clouds, and there is a torrent at the foot of the mountain. After floating on a raft for half an hour, I saw a small town surrounded by many camellias. Then I drifted for a long time before I saw this pier called Shiji Bay."

After opening his eyes, he took out the local map that he got on the way. After spreading it out, the place circled with charcoal pencil was Shiji Bay, and the place he pointed out was indeed far from Shiji Bay. A mountain range, "Probably estimated, the distance may be about the same, and there is a place with the highest peak, and this is the only place."

No way, after getting the actual map, I found that the way of searching for the source of the upstream is unrealistic, because there are too many tributaries that cross and merge into the main river along the way, and it is impossible to judge which river Yunxi took the wood from. Float over here.

For three thousand years, the tributary rivers are easily diverted.

Wanting to go upstream or downstream one after another, not to mention the issue of time, is really exhausting.

They had no choice but to estimate how far they could drift in half a day based on the approximate flow rate. They found a similar mountain range area on the map, and decided to find the so-called highest peak first, and then try it according to the itinerary Yunxi said, to see if they could do it. Find that town with a lot of camellias.

If you find the highest peak and you can see Camellia Town by rafting for half an hour, then you should be right.

Yu Qing, who was lying in front of the arched shed and observing the bustling pier outside, said: "This Shiji Bay can exist for three thousand years because of its convenient terrain and natural good pier. A small town in the mountains may not last that long, and we may not be able to find it." .”

Nanzhu leaned against the wall, "If the town is really gone, it doesn't matter if you can't find the town. The town can disappear, but the suitable vegetation species don't disappear so easily. If there are a lot of camellias in the approximate location, it can be regarded as proof.

If we can't find evidence, then we'll bet that the highest peak of that mountain range is the Immortal Cave Mansion. Since it's on the top of the mountain, shouldn't we choose a place that's one head shorter?Find the highest peak and wait until the first new moon next year to try it out.If it really doesn’t work, let’s spend a year floating the rivers back and forth to try it out. "

Yu Qing turned around and sat down, "Yunxi can tell us the location of the Xianjia cave, I always feel that there is something wrong, I always feel that something is wrong, she can't deliberately pick up a place name from memory to play us?"

Nanzhu: "If this is the case, there is nothing we can do. We don't have to come, and we don't have to be tricked by her. We are the ones who insist on running here, no one forced us, so who can we blame? It's okay, old man. Fifteen, come here, do everything, let's do it and see.

In short, either make a fortune, or work in vain.Aren't you striving to become a master in the practice world?How can you become a master without cultivation resources? Where can you get cultivation resources without money?Even if we rob, we can't beat them!In the past, our lives were cheap, and there was no way to make a fortune. Now that we finally have the opportunity, how can we not give it a try?Old Fifteen, we've all come here..."

Yu Qing reached out and stopped, "Okay, I'll just talk casually, don't talk anymore."

He is obedient to this kind of chatter, and whenever he seizes the opportunity, he will preach to people in a serious manner, and he can talk endlessly, which is really unbearable.

Nanzhu shook his head, looking like a young man who didn't listen to the old man's words, turned around and reached into the bucket beside him to grab the ladle, scooped up clear water and poured it into the teapot beside him, knocked on the teapot, and touched the clothes on the horizontal bar of the arched shed. Big head shouted: "Come on, big head, come over and make a pot of tea."

The big head on the crossbar tilted his head to look at him, then tilted his head back, remained motionless, and ignored him at all.

Judging from the reaction, he heard Nanzhu's greeting.

Nan Zhu frowned, turned around and reached into the cloth bag in the corner to dig out, grabbed a handful of Lingmi, put it on the board of the boat, and tapped it.

The big head on the crossbar tilted its head, and immediately flew down and rushed towards Lingmi.

boom!Nan Zhu covered the small pile of Lingmi with his palm, and lifted his chin towards the teapot, "Why don't you want to eat if you don't work? Make tea first!"

The big head tilted his head to look at him, turned around and jumped up, and fell into the teapot.

Nanzhu smirked, suddenly thought of something, and said to Yu Qing: "Old fifteen, have you noticed that this farting bug seems to be much smarter than before, seems to be able to use his brain, and he has begun to know how to bargain, and now he seems to be slow. It's time to fully understand human speech. Could it be that it's because you've grown up slowly?"

Yu Qing was taken aback, he didn't feel that he had been with Datou for a long time, after such a reminder, let alone, there seemed to be a lot of changes on this road compared with before, could it be that he was really young before, but now he has grown up?

Gududu, the teapot soon became hot, the water boiled, and the big head crawled out again.

Nanzhu rinsed, poured out the hot water, and filled the pot with clean water. When the teapot was knocked, Datou jumped in again.

After a pot of water was boiled, the big head that crawled out jumped directly at the Lingmi, and started to eat it. Nanzhu didn't stop him this time, let him eat, took out the tea and threw it into the teapot.

Outside, in the drizzle, Mu Aotie threw off his arms and paddled upstream with his sculls, and he knew exactly how to get there.

It was said that the three of them took turns rowing, but in fact he was rowing alone most of the time. Yu Qing and Nan Zhu only took turns to take over when he needed to rest and recover.Under normal circumstances, Mu Ao Tie is also doing ordinary physical work. He calls himself 'Wu Chi' and regards work as a practice. If he wants to, there is nothing he can do. The other two will naturally not be polite.

"Old Jiu, take it easy, don't row too fast, it's easy to attract suspicion."

Nan Zhu, who opened the curtain, handed Mu Aotie a cup of brewed tea and reminded him at the same time.

　Thanks to "Pickled Vegetables" for the regular support of the big red flower!
